(Poetry) Summer Daydream

Summer Daydream

I walked along the expanse of beach
Warm white sand between my toes
My hair wrapping around itself
By the soft ocean breeze billowing
My eyes gazed heavenward enchanted
By the dotted clouds and blue tinged sky
Lost inside of some wandering daydream
I felt like I was flying as I walked along
Until I landed beside him and his blanket
Like some awkward new born fawn
Trying to muster back up some dignity
I leapt back up to feel my faltering legs
Hitting a crumpled spot in his blanket
To end up nearly in his bewildered arms
Our eyes met for a moment as we laughed
I'm not drunk is what I think I said to him
I noticed then his eyes that looked amused
They mirrored the color the summer sky
I think for a moment I forget to breathe
For some reason I did not want to move
He pulled me into his embrace and smiled
You must be a mermaid he said teasingly
You've come to steel my heart from me
Held transfixed by his sun warmed arms
Thinking he was some insane day dream
I looked inside of his summer blue eyes
Leaned my face down to his even closer
Feeling the softest brush of his tender kiss
He was not a dream this beautiful stranger
His strong yet gentle embrace holding me
I think I tripped and fell in love that day
On our warm whited sanded summer beach
